two simple fixes for that.
  1. breaking off a tooth pick in the hole before you inset the screw.
  2. tightly rolling up a piece of paper to fit the hole snugly . this allows the screw to push the paper to the sides evenly. (my favorite)
 
Another one is to insert a length of plastic cut from a cable tie.
 
Yes that one is a good one too. But I found best results with the rolled paper. It fills in the existing threads. I find tooth picks and plastic actually stretch the hole.
